Question
A patient undergoing treatment by transplantation of genetically modified autologous cells did which of the following? A. had to get tissue typed and matched and deal with a cell bank to get the right cells for transplantation B. paid a lot for really good insurance to be able to have a cell transplantation C. donated the cells from his own body D. got really drunk one night and wrecked his auto
Solution
The patient did C. donated the cells from his own body. This is because the term "autologous" refers to cells, tissues, or even proteins that are reimplanted in the same individual as they come from. In this case, the patient's own cells were genetically modified and then transplanted back into them.
